SUMMARY OF MINUTES FROM MEETING ON 18/05/06

1. Cinecam Film - discussion with Anthony and Rahul
   §  Shooting is finished and the film is now being edited. It should work out around 8 minutes long and be ready in time for May Week, when the plan is to show it at the 48 Hour Screening.
   §  Bella will liase with Anthony and Rahul to help publicise the film and send it out to festivals.
   §  Anthony suggested that ADC techies might be interested in being involved in films - also that the ADC Writers List and the English Department might provide routes for encouraging more students to write short film scripts.
    
2. Website
   §  We agreed that we should add a section to the website giving advice about submitting films to competitions.
   §  Rob raised the idea of putting clips or trailers on the site. We have 100Mb of space on the SRCF so this should be entirely feasible.
    
3. Garden Party
   §  The party will be 4-7pm on The Island at Darwin College on Friday, June 23rd. We will invite members on a basis of RSVP, first come first served, as 50 people is the maximum capacity of the Island. Entry will provisionally be free, with guests bringing their own bottle.
    
4. 48 Hour Competition
   §  The competition will run from midday on Friday 16th June until midday on Sunday 18th June. Brian will try to book the Chetwynd room at King's for giving out the title and setting the teams off on the Friday.
   §  Bella and Kirsty will try to get prizes (probably DVDs and cinema tickets) from various places around Cambridge.
   §  Screening of the 48-hour films and the Cinecam film will be at in Robinson College at 7.30pm on Friday 23rd June - directly after the Garden Party.
   §  Pricing for the competition and screening have yet to be finalised but will be something along the lines of £5 for non-members, £2 for half-members and free for full members, with competition entrants getting free admission to the screening. The screening will be £3 for everyone else, with possible reduced or zero entry fee for full or half members.
   §  Rob will handle producing the posters and copying them at St John's. We will all share the task of putting them out around Cambridge as soon as they are ready.
    
5. Equipment
   We discussed the question of how long people should be allowed to borrow equipment and agreed that they should be allowed to take it as long as they needed, within reason, if no-one else needed it. However, if more than one person applies to borrow equipment at the same time, we will limit the borrowing period to a week at a time.
    
6. Mayweek Meeting
   We will meet in Mayweek to discuss plans for next year. The provisional date and place have been set as the Granta on Newnham road on Monday 19th June, sometime in the afternoon.
